Mindoro


Trekking


Location:

North coast of Mindoro Island

Difficulty:

Moderate (Two hours walking each way).

Characteristics:

River crossings • Cool pools • Rapids • Waterfalls

Activities:

Hiking/Nature/Swimming/Cultural

Duration:

1 Day (0730 - 1700)

Description:

The Bugtong River drains the mountains of the interior of Mindoro Island down to the sea. It is only accessible by boat from Puerto Galera to the east, or Abra de Ilog to the west.

The lower reaches of the river are broad and shallow, fringed by extensive rice paddies.

These give way to mature, but still active, coconut palm plantations, before the valley narrows into sections of rapids, deep pools and narrow gorges.

The area is populated by the indigenous Iraya Mangyans who live in small communities in the lower valley, alongside their Tagalog speaking, lowlander neighbours.

Camp Kingfisher:

Named after the predominant (and noisiest) local bird in the area, the White Throated Kingfisher, the camp is situated on the bank of the river, alongside a deep, cool, pool. It has basic toilet and changing facilities.

Here, while you cool off with a swim, your guides will prepare lunch, which will be taken in the cool of a river-side dining area, in the shade of a shelter made from local bamboo and cogon grass thatch.

After lunch you're free to relax in a hammock in the shade of the trees, or to take part in some of our other activities.

Activities:

There are a number of things to do in and around the camp.

Numerous bird species (some endemic to the Philippines) can be seen and heard from the camp. The area abounds with beautiful butterflies too. There are reference books at the camp to help you build your list.

Local Skills:

Our guides and partners, the Iraya Mangyans, have knowledge of the plants and animals of the forest, together with traditional woodwork. They are happy to spend time with guests to impart some of what they know, and to teach you how to make simple utensils from local bamboo.

This trip can be made at any time of the year, although heavy rains can swell the river to the point where it is temporarily impassable.
